No more frozen hoses!

Okay, I know it's almost the middle of spring already, but hey winter is just around the corner, right? Anyway, for all you northern gardeners out there, this might be just what you have been looking for. It's a heated garden hose. Cool, huh? This seems to fall under that "I wish I had thought of that" rule. Anyway, supposedly, you just plug the hose into an outdoor electric plug, then a faucet and you are good to go. The only problem I can see from this is that we all know that water and electricity don't mix. I'm sure this is perfectly safe and all, but I don't imagine that too many people have GFCI outlets right next to a water faucet. Plus the fact that the hose itself will run you almost $200. But to some people, it might be worth it to have nice toasty running water while the temps are below freezing for 6 months out of the year. Anyway if you have that much money burning a hole in your pocket, you can get this jewel here.
